Loop 3.2.1 Update
|
|
A lot of "behind the scenes" updates are included. The one people will notice is that the G7 language no longer defaults to Spanish.
If you are running 3.0 or an earlier dev version, you need to update to 3.2.1!
If you're running 3.2.0 with G6 (not G7), there is no rush to update.
